I would say the skills of a rallydriver are things like coordination, balance, anticipation, risk-assement and intelligence. None of these things are captured in the word 'athlete'.
You don't think athletes need coordination, balance and anticipation?
I agree that the word 'athlete' is very general and doesn't give you much detail though.

I think Alonso's Aston days are over. I don't see him driving the Honda-powered car in 2026. That GP2 rant is coming back to haunt him, I think. The pairing may turn out to be Verstappen and Stroll....
